Topic: [SOLVED] Windows 10 partition has a triangle "warning sign"?

SOLVED! Trying to dual boot with Linux but in trying to resize a nearly 300 GB partition I'm not having any luck with the Resize/Move tool.  Can't get the cursor to move the right boundary.

What does the warning message say?
(Double click on the partition to open the Information dialog).

Re: [SOLVED] Windows 10 partition has a triangle "warning sign"?

Being a newbie I did not know what that box meant.  After I double clicked on it it said that the windows chkdsk utility needed to be run. Did that and rebooted with Gparted disc and was able to make room for Ubuntu.  Thanks!
